How much money do you think would need to be raised for this to ever be released? Just curious.

Do you mean Paradise Square?
More than will ever be “raised” in all reality. This is one of those shows that we can appreciate through bootlegs but I wouldn’t hold my breath for future productions or official recordings.

what u want to do is get in touch with Garth Drabinsky
tell him u wish to invest in a cast recording
he will take really good care of your money
as Livent will be producing the album
after the incredible financial success of Paradise Square on broadway
he was given the ‘best producer’ award by actors’ equity
so yes I think this show is as likely to get a cast album release as the smash Broadway hit ‘nerds’
It was already produced.
I realize everyone's first instinct on the internet is to criticize strangers but you really should do a google before posting.
The composer "leaked" some of the cast recording tracks on his website, I believe.

Based on the grammar and tone, I know this is likely a troll post; nonetheless there are a few cast recordings and studio recordings that have been produced over the years that have not seen a release date for one reason or another. Paradise Square is one of them. Interestingly, several tracks did see an unofficial release of sorts a couple years back.

what is wrong with my grammer
paradise square sucked
the project should never have gotten off the ground when the name Garth Drabinsky collided with the position of producer
charlatans like him continue to hurt other ppl because of enablers
he is the George Santos of theatre
Hearing it live once was more than enough for me.

It was already recorded. Produced in the recording industry means a lot of things that make it not the same as how we think of the term in the theatre. I know. I tried it once. With an emphasis on once.
Aside from mixing it, probably fixing it, making sense of it, you also have to pay for it. That price tag will be well into six figures. Everyone has to be paid because anyone can file a lawsuit seeking to enjoin a release that has been stolen. I could write a few more pages of observations but the bottom line will be the same: no one in their right mind is going to do what it would take to release it, which would involve a ton of hands on work as well as funds, all in aid of what? a show that was a major floperoo as well as a train wreck of monumental proportions. In the words of Lefty Ruggiero, fuhgeddaboudit.
